While it might be frustrating at times, trust me when I tell you that slow and steady wins the race when it comes to cash flow.2) Decide Whether You Want To Be Active or Passive - This is a VERY important point that I can't stress enough.

If I have a legal question, I'd rather go to the horse's mouth than hear 5 things from different lawyers.

Hi, I have been a member to the site for a while but never really got involved, my bad :oops: I am a Realtor working for a new home builder in a very hot area of West Palm Beach and I don't mean hot because it is 90 degrees out.Anyway the area is called Loxahatchee/Royal Palm Beach, it is only a 10 min drive to West Palm Beach, cute mom & pop family village type of place with A+ schools, so people from other parts of the state are moving here to avoid the rat race and raise their children in a nice community with good schools and not far from civilization (shopping).

@Frank GamezMan, that's awesome - good luck getting out of the rat race

@Race JeetThis is where “Trust but always verify” comes to play.

@Aaron Cullen the lawn care business is a race to the bottom .

I'm sure when cars became prevalent there were horse buggy manufacturers scheming on how to get congress  to enact protection schemes.  

Learn everything you can, implement, and once you close out a year where over half of the business was 100% self-sourced by yourself, at that point worry about 45% this or 70% that.Right now, with zero closed transactions, you're putting the cart before the horse. 100% of 0 closed transactions is.... $0.00. 

I want out of the rat race.

Many people lose money on their first few deals, which is okay as long as you get back on the horse to keep going!
